....held several economics-related positions at the US Department of State in Washington, D.C., and eventually coordinated activities of the State Department, the Departments of Commerce, Treasury, the United States Trade Representative, and Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC) in their economic relations with the Soviet Union and its successors. As part of her work she interacted with the International Monetary Fund, World Bank, and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. Later from 1992 to 1995, she was the first Chief of the Economic Section of the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine, responsible for strengthening economic cooperation between the two countries.[8] In 2003 she was awarded the Ukrainian Order of Princess Olga for her contributions to the Ukrainian economy.

Between 2005 and 2010 Jaresko was a member of President Viktor Yushchenko's Foreign Investors Advisory Council and the Advisory Board of the Ukrainian Center for Promotion of Foreign Investment under the auspices of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.

Datagroup is owned by Oleksandr Kardakov but his personal empire has collapsed due to foreign currency loan debt.

Foreign loan debt is an old muscle trick of economic hit men (SEE John Perkins, Confessions of an Economic Hit Man). Banksters and international global financial organizations (think the World Bank) load up third-world governments with debt that can't possibly be repaid and they go in to pick off the juicy meat when the third-world governments can't make the debt payments.

The loans to Kardakov were a spin-off on the basic maneuver. With Nuland fomenting revolution and turmoil in Ukraine, the Ukranian currency, the hryvnia, has collapsed on foreign exchange markets.

This has made it impossible for Kardakov to pay off his US dollar-denominated loans.

In late February, the company began its liquidation procedure. The company's other major asset - 'Datagroup' telecom operator - may soon be sold out to pay off debts. It may be purchased by its current minority shareholder - investment company 'Horizon Capital', co-founded by Ukraine's current Finance Minister Natalie Jaresko.
